My Little Angel Chapter 2

Last Part:

Chandler: Wait. I called her Faith, because she's my only Faith left. She changed my life Mon...she made me realise how to live my life before- Monica: Before what Chandler?!?!?!?! Chandler: I'm dying Mon...

Next Part:

(Monica stared at Chandler as though she were waiting for the punch line of a horrible joke. But it never came. Chandler stared back at her with tears brimming in his eyes, and she suddenly felt her own eyes watering too. Chandler...was dying. This couldn't be, there had to be a mistake! Chandler couldn't die-he had a beautiful daughter and friends that cared for him. He couldn't die!! Monica couldn't speak, she just sat there, staring at the man she loved with all her heart) Monica: H-h-how?

Chandler: Leukaemia.

Monica: That can be cured...

Chandler: I know...I asked my doctor about that...but he said that I have a rare kind that cant be cured...

Monica: How long do you have?

Chandler: About one more year-(his voice broke and tears started coming down his cheeks)

Monica: Whe-whe-when did you find out?

Chandler: A month after Faith was born...

(Monica looked at Chandler carefully from his head down, she stopped at his hand and began to cry harder. His hands had many bruises on them, and she couldn't bare looking at them, instead she grabbed hold of him and hugged him tightly)

Monica: (sobbing on his shoulder) No...this cant be...I love you Chandler!

Chandler: (breaks the hug and stares at a crying Monica) Please Monica...please tell me that's not true...

Monica: I love you Chandler...for 6 years...I haven't stopped.

Chandler: No Monica...you cant...please...

Monica: Why not Chandler?

Chandler: I dont want to hurt you, Mon!! ESPECIALLY you!

Monica: I want to be there for you Chandler!!

Chandler: Well then do me a favor...

Monica: Anything...!

Chandler: Will you be Faith's mother...after I-

Monica: Yes.

Chandler: Thank you Mon...thank you...(he hugs her and then whispers in her ear) I love you too. (they kiss and it fades out with the song One Last Song by A1)

Take my hand Touch my face Let me feel your embrace Let me see In your eyes That you wont say goodbye Just tell me how you feel I dont know what you're thinking Anymore...

Chorus: And if you need me You'd kiss me And tell me how you feel And if you want me You'd show me That your love is for real And if you love me You'd hold me in your arms where I belong So while I'm feeling strong I'll sing you one last song...

Let me ask Time has passed Do you feel this could last? If you don't Why then stay Take your wings and fly away I love you way too much To wanna be the one who bring you down (Chorus) One last song I sing for you Like I always did This time it's for real I'll never come to you like this Expecting you'll return my kiss (chorus)

NEXT DAY

(Chandler gets up in a bed and looks beside him. But he didn't see Faith, instead he saw Monica. At first he was kind of confused, but then it all came back to him. Suddenly Monica stirred and opened one eye and saw Chandler watching her and she smiled at him.) Monica: Hey there...

Chandler: (smiles) Hey...(he kisses Monica quickly on the lips)

Monica: I better get downstairs and cook breakfast for everyone...

Chandler: Hmmm...yea...

(Monica gets up and puts on a pair of pants and a shirt. She's about to walk out the door when Chandler starts laughing)

Monica: What?

Chandler: That's my shirt, and you're wearing it backwards...!

(Monica looks down, and simply turns the shirt over)

Chandler: All right...you wear that, but what do I wear??

(Monica shrugs and walks out)

Chandler: HEY! Ugh.

(Monica walks down the stares and finds everyone in the kitchen, except for the two kids)

Monica: Hey there everyone!!!!!

Joey: Hurry up lady, I'm hungry!!

Monica: Good morning to you too Joey!

Rachel: You're suddenly so happy...what happened to the quiet Monica we had yesterday?? Wait-(she stares at the shirt that Monica is wearing and suddenly hugs Monica) Oh my god Monica!! I'm sooooooooo happy for you!!!!

Monica: What are you talking about?

Rachel: Your shirt!! That's not yours! That's-Chandler's!!!

Monica: Oh...yeah.

Joey: Mooonniiicccaaa!!! I'm hungry!!

Phoebe: So...are you together?!

Monica: (she just stares at her friends) Um...

Chandler(O/S): ROOOOOSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! I NEED TO BORROW A SHIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ross: Right. (Ross walks out of the room)

(after a while Ross and Chandler come down stairs)

Phoebe: Sooo...Chandler...are you and Mon together???

Chandler: (gets nervous) Um...I guess...

(Monica gets even happier)

(Suddenly Faith walks in)

Everyone: Hey Faith/Morning Faith/Hey!/Hi Angel

Faith: Hewo! Hewo Dada!

Chandler: Hey Angel...

(Monica turns around from what she's cooking and stares at Chandler and then at Faith. Chandler notices and looks at Monica and then at Faith)

Chandler: Hey Angel...I know you're kinda young, but have you ever wondered why Alyssa has a mommy and you dont?

(everyone stares at Chandler with this weird look, but Chandler keeps talking)

Faith: I donno...

Chandler: All right...wanna go watch TV?

Faith: Okay dada!!

Chandler: Here...I'll help you find a channel...(Chandler and Faith walk out and after a while Chandler comes back in)

Ross: What was that all about?

Chandler: Well...I wanted to just ask her that...

Phoebe: Why do you always call her Angel instead of Faith or something...?

(Joey and Monica stare at Chandler and Chandler takes a deep breath)

Chandler: Well...um...okay truth.

Joey: Chandler? What are you doing?

Chandler: I'm sorry Jo...I cant take it anymore...

(Rachel, Ross and Phoebe look strangely between Joey and Chandler)

Chandler: (takes a deep breath) I call her angel because that's what she is to me-she's like my angel...she came to me when I was troubled...

(R&R&P still look confused)

Chandler: In other words...she's my angel. And I named her faith, well, because she's my only faith left-all I need now is a miracle-and she IS my miracle. I'm dying...I have leukaemia.

( dead silence filled the kitchen as everyone stared at Chandler to shocked to speak)

Ross: What-man are you telling the truth?!

(Chandler looks away)

Monica: He is.

(Joey stares at Monica)

Joey: you knew?

Monica: Since last night.

Phoebe: I thought that Leukaemia can be cured by treatment?

(Chandler is still looking away and out the window and they can see a few tears rolling down his face)

Joey: The doctor says its a rare kind of leukaemia, and it cant be cured.

Rachel: (who started to cry a bit) How long do you have Chandler?

(Chandler turns and stares at his 5 best friends, who he all cared about terribly and tried to speak)

Chandler: A year. Excuse me...I have to go talk to my daughter-(his voice broke, and he slowly got up and walked out of the kitchen)

(He went into the living room where the TV is and shut the door to a crack)

Chandler: Angel...can I talk to you?

Faith: Wokay Dada...

(Chandler switches off the TV and Faith comes and sits down beside him)

Chandler: Okay angel...I just wanted to explain something to you...

Faith: Wokay...

Chandler: In a few months honey...daddy is going somewhere...

Faith: Where daddy? Can I come with you?

Chandler: No honey...I'm sorry. Only daddy can go...because I'm going with the angels. And the angels only bring one person at the time.

Faith: But why daddy?

Chandler: Because that's how they do it. And they dont bring little children like you...

Faith: When wi you come ba?

Chandler: I'm sorry angel...never.

Faith: Neva?! But why?!

Chandler: It's just my time to go angel...

(at this second the camera goes to the door where we can see Joey, Phoebe, Ross, Rachel and Monica listening by the crack of the door)

Faith: Wi I eva see you again? Eva?

Chandler: One day...when it's your turn to be carried by the angels...and that's going to be when you're older and more beautiful...

Faith: Daddy...wer do I go weh you go?

Chandler: You are going to live with your new mommy...okay?

Faith: Who dat?

Chandler: Your Aunt Monica...is that all right with you?

Faith: U-huh...but dada...will I still be your angel?

(Chandler stares at his 3 year old with admiration. For a 3 year old she was very smart, and that last question pulled his heart strings. He just stared at her for a while as her eyes began to water, but she never did cry.)

Chandler: Yes...you will always be my angel...where ever I am, I will always love you. And I hope you know that-always.

Faith: Yea dada...I wove you too.

(Chandler hugs her and begins to cry, after a while he lets go of her)

Chandler: I'll never really leave you angel...only in person...but I will live on in here(touches her chest, indicating her heart/soul) and in here(touches her head, indicating her mind) Do you understand that angel?

Faith: Yes daddy, I do. I l-l-love you.

Chandler: Angel! You just spoke properly!

(Faith giggles)

Chandler: my little angel!!!(he hugs her and begins to laugh. The camera turns to the others standing by the door and they all have at least one tear rolling down their faces.)

In the arms of the angel

Fly away

From this dark cold hotel room

And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage

Of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of the angel

May you find some comfort here...

Later on, Ross is sitting on the swing on the porch and Rachel comes out to him

Rachel: Hey Ross...what are you doing?

Ross: Thinking...about Chandler. I mean he IS my best friend, even though he never did tell me or anything.

Rachel: Hmmm...Ross I've been thinking, and I've decided to stay.

Ross: (looks at Rachel) Why?

Rachel: Well first, I've seen how happy Alyssa is with you around...and she's going to need a father to grow up too...and also because of Chandler. I know that he's going to be staying here until-um...yea.

Ross: So you're staying? For good?

Rachel: Yea...well only you tell me what the other half of your life is...(teasingly)

Ross: You think I'm gonna tell you?!(playing along)

Rachel: Yep!

Ross: And why is that?

Rachel: Because...I'm your friend?

Ross: Phhfff...I'm gonna need more than that!!

Rachel: How bout because I loooovvvveeee yoouuuuuu!?

Ross: What?(gets all serious)

(Rachel stares into his eyes and then looks down)

Rachel: (quietly) I know what your other half is...now I know!! When you said to me in the car 'don't you know what true love is' you weren't only talking about Monica!! Because Monica said 'WE haven't dated since you guys left' so she was talking about herself and you!! Oh my god!! I figured it out didn't I? Your second half is me!

(Ross stares at her grinning)

Ross: You're pretty smart Greene...

Rachel: Yeah...hhmmm...lets see if you can read my mind...(Rachel laughs) What am I thinking right now...?

(Ross looks into her eyes smiling)

Ross: Um...well...you want me to do this-(Ross leans in and kisses her and she kisses him back. They stay like that until they hear giggling. They break and turn towards the door that leads to the kitchen and see Alyssa standing there, giggling)

Rachel: Alyssa!!!!

(Alyssa runs inside still giggling)

Ross: Well...was I right?

(Rachel turns to look at Ross who is watching her)

Rachel: Hmmm...yeah...but I wasn't thinking about Alyssa coming and ruining it...

Ross: Hey, it wasn't ruined...that was just the beginning! (Ross and Rachel slowly lean in and the camera fades out, and we can here the chorus of the song It's Gonna Be Love by Mandy Moore playing)

It's gonna be love

It's gonna be great

It's gonna be more than I can take

It's gonna be free



It's gonna be real

It's gonna be more than I can feel

It's gonna be sane

It's gonna be true

It's gonna be me, baby

It's gonna be you, baby

It's gonna be love...

(On the screen we see A few months later and we see a funeral service, and we see Joey, Phoebe, Monica, Rachel and Ross and the two girls and some other family members crying around a grave while people are lowering a coffin into the ground. All the friends are crying and Rachel's hugging Ross tightly and crying into his chest. Then we see Faith(who just turned 4), just standing behind a tree which is near Chandler's grave, and she's just staring at the whole thing happening in front of her eyes, and one single tear rolls down her face and she raises her hand slowly and touches it and then puts her hand down and begins to cry freely)

(after the service, everyone is starting to walk away, and Monica goes up to Faith)

Monica: Hey there little one...are you all right?

Faith: (looks up at Monica, and shakes her head) Uh-uh.

Monica: (puts both her arms out and Faith lets her pick her up) Come on sweetie...lets go home.

Faith: B-b-but daddy told me that angels were gonna come down and get him!! I didn't see any angels!!

(Monica looks like she doesn't know how to explain)

Monica: Well sweetie...you cant see angels...

Faith: Daddy said I was HIS angel and YOU can see me...

Monica: Yes...well...um...you're a special angel, Faith. You were your daddy's special angel...and he wanted everyone to see you.

Faith: Really? Why?

Monica: Because you are beautiful...and he loved you and was very proud of you.

Faith: But how come my daddy didn't want ME to bring him to a special place if I'm his special angel?

Monica: Because...if you did bring him to that special place, then you would never come back here...and your daddy wanted you to be with me. You understand that?

(Faith nods her head slowly)

Monica: Should we go home now...angel?

Faith: Okay...mommy.

(Monica stared at Faith, as Faith laid her head on Monica's shoulder. She stared in fascination at the little 4 year old who spoke like a 10 year old. She slowly walked to the car where her 4 friends were waiting for her, and she heard Chandler's last few words to her replay in her head... (we hear Chandler's voice saying this)"Monica...take care of my little angel for me. She was my faith...and she brought me this far...I love you both."

I'll always remember

It was late after noon

It lasted forever

And ended so soon

You were all by yourself

Staring up at a dark grey sky

And I was changed



In places no one will find

All your feelings so deep inside(deep inside)

Was then that I realised

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry

(Cry...moment that I saw you cry)

It was late in September

And I'd seen you before(seen you before)

You were always the cold one

But I was never that sure

You were all by yourself

Staring up at a dark grey sky

And I was changed

In places no one will find

All your feelings so deep inside(deep inside)

Was then that I realised

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry

And I wanted to hold you

I wanted to make it go away

And I wanted to know you

I wanted to be your everything

Oh cry

I'll always remember

It was late after noon...

In places no one will find......

In places no one will find

All your feelings so deep inside(deep inside)

Was then that I realised

That forever was in your eyes

The moment I saw you cry...

(Cry...moment that I saw you cry)

Oh no, no, no...I think I saw you cry...

The moment I saw you cry.
